Curt. on Women Voting.

II am asked what women want the
ballot for, I answer, What do men
want it for? Why do the Brit
ish workmen at this moment so urgent
" demand it. Look into the British
laws regulating labor, and You will see
why. They want the ballot because
the laws affecting labor and capital are
made by the capitalists alone. and are
therefore unjust. do not forget the
progressive legislation of New York in
regard to the rights of women Upon
this point one honorable gentleman
asked whether the laws both for men
and women were not constantly inn
proving, and whether. therefore, it was
not unfair to attribute the character Of
the laws about women to the fact that
men made them The reply is very
evident If women alone made
made the laws. Legislation for both
men and women would undoubtedly be
progressive. Does the honorable gem
tleman think. therefore. that women
only should make the George

WOMAN's DEPARTMENT.
The QUIET GIRL.

=, - -
Why sAs IL, Alnsss without Exesyeisa,
saessss6sl n Life
The quiet girl IL often mistaken for
stupid one, and reckoned rs cipher
among the intcllcctualiticA Unless
she has wealth and position. she soon
finds herself de troP socially. People
who invite others because of some 60
cial quality arc apt to forget her ex-
istence; she does not contribute TO the
glories OF any salon. Nobody seems
to feel it duty to draw her out; mo-
body believes there is any thing to
draw ont IT, however. she il not
satisfied with her fortunes nobody
hears any thing about it. and conse-
qucntly every body believes. II they
give her thought, that she is perfect
~ resigned to the commonplace. and
that she could not appreciate any thing
better. The quiet girl never wears
high colors on the street; you do -ot
see her Haunting in brilliant plaids
when they happen to be the style;
when high hats are ''in." she does not
pile hers so high that it sweeps the
cobwebs from the sky; she does not
wear an exaggerated bang when the
bang is in vogue. nor the biggest hustle
in town. nor the longest train to her
tea-gown. nor the greatest number of
bangles when bangles reign.
But because she does not chatter and
giggle and make herself conspicuous
in horse-cars or at matinees. does not
announce her convictions on all occa-
sions and on all subjects. and profess
her admirations at every hands turn.
it must not be supposed that she has
no ideas or convictions or enthusiasts.
that she moves along like star in the
heavens. which obcys the laws of grav-
itation without selecting Its course or
Directing to its orbit. She is quiet be-
cause she has no power to make her
self heard, to change her conditions.
or because she is maturing that power.
When Stella's novel set the world agog,
did we not remember that she was the
quiet girl at school Of whom nobody
expected any thing. whom we had not
thought it worth while to cultivate?
Didn't we all say: "She is the last
person we should suspect of turn for
literature or originality" fancying
that genius must be noisy and self-as-
serting? "Where," we ask. "did she
learn to paint character 40 admirably.
when she has not known a hundred
people in all her life?" Yet, all the
same, she has known these few people
to some purpose; she has had leisure
to reflect upon all she has seen. She
has not been SO occupied in amusing
herself. in advertising her good points,
in making the most of herself. but that
she could observe others. and use all
the material in her world. In the
meanwhile it is the quiet girl who
marries earliest, who makes the best
match, who fills the inches whica her
more brilliant sisters leave vacant,
who manages the servants. runs the
sewing-machine. remembers the birth
days. listens to the "reminiscences of
the old, and often keeps the wolf from
the dOOr-Hdrper's Bazaar.

SUFFRAGE AND THE BIBLE.
Divine Authority to Sustain the Cause 81
WomAn Su6enIa.

Divine Authority TO Sustain the Cause 81
Woman Suffrage.
Opponents of woman suffrage. says
Rev. j. W. Bashford. generally go back
rs far rs Genesis for arguments. but
even then they do not 60 back far
enough. They stop with true account
of false relation into which man and
woman were thrown by sin. and quote
this account rs the original charter for
mankind: Thy desire shall be to thy
husband and he shall rule over thee. "
If they will only go back to the crea-
ton of Adam and Eve, and to their nat.
ural and divine relation before the
fall, they will fail to find sentence
which hints at the subordination OF
woman. Woman was not made in
mans image, neither was the dominion
of the world committed to him alone.
On the contrary. the record plainly
says: ''In the image Of God created he
him. and God said: "Let them have
dominion over all the earth.'"
Now when Adam and Eve descended
from the sphere Of spirituality to the
animal sphere. when they turned from
life Of faith to follow appetite. God
said to man that even nature should
rebel against his animal life: The
earth shall bring forth thorns and
thistles." The history of every drunk
ard and man of lust proves that nature
fights against him. and confirms the
prophecy. And God said to woman
that in this lower animal life with man
she would be constantly worsted:
Thy desire shall be to thy husband
and he shall rule over thee" Six
thousand years Of history have proved
the terrible truth Of this prophecy.
And yet this declaration of wOman's
subordination-which does not belong
ut all to the account of her original Gre
alton, and which is directly due to SIN.
and which We see sprang from the
very nature of the two and from the
sinful contest on which they then en-
tered-is quoted rope atedly as the di-
vine declaration of the ideal state of
the sexes, and we are constantly told
that any attempt to change it is . vio-
lation of the divine constitution. As
well might one declare that the thorns
and briers which God said the earth
should bring forth, on account of
mans sin, are an expressi of the
ideal attitude Of nature toward man,
and that we violate the divine consti-
tuition in tilling the soil and improv-
ing its products.
Again, the whole effort Of Christ was
to restore to mankind what was lost in
Adam. '.For as in Adam all die, 50 in
Christ shall all he made alive" If
Christianity is completely to restore
that which was lost in Adam, how can
it stop short of completely abolishing
the subordination of women. which
the Bible declares to be the direct re-
suit of sin. and Of leading US back to
the Edenic proclamation: LET them
have dominion over all the earth?"
